Representative Groas OF Vermont,
who wss on the territories committee in
the forty-seventh congress, says the
greatest political mistake ever made by
the republicans was the failure to divide
Dakota in the iorty.seyenth congress,
when they had tine power. The remark
was made at the time that those chick.
ems would come home to roost. They
are hockiDg In and are settling down
presty generally upon Hale OF Maine
who permitted Ordway to use him in q
manner altogether disreputabIe through
the agency OF s. W. Packard, OF Chicago

have long ago relegated Mr.. Hale to his

THE STORY OF MARQUIS.
ENiied from italy, EIe Lives Bohe'
milan Life I'm New York.


Robert Pratt, Marquis of Rovagnasca,
who died in this city on Wednesday,
will be buried at Orange, y. j., to-day.
He was well known among the Italian
colony in this city, having come to
America in 1859 The circumstances
under which he left Iurino were pecu-
liar, and the details are familiar to his
friends and countrymen. They say
that he q" had a difficulty with King
Victor Emmanuel. and was offered the
alternative of Punishment, with pen
sion Of 300f. per month, or imprison
mcnt. The Marquis accepted the
former and came to this country, leav-
ing his beautiful wife behind in the
Kings court.
Pratt was befriended here by Signor
Buchignani and others of his country
msl, and opened school for fencing.
He was quite successful for awhile in
this and in teaching languages. Work,
however, was distasteful to him. His
life at home had given him extravagant
habits, and ultimately he lived by his
wits and the $50 pension.
A man of rare natural gifts, mental
and physical, and Of brilliant attain
ments, he made his way easily and be-
came popular He was generous to a
fault, ready of speech, and something
of poet. Subsequently he drfted
into politics, and had a quasi cOnnec-
ton with Tammany Hall, which led to
an appointment in Mayor Ely's office
at 81, 800 "A year. When King Emman-
uel died and Umberto ascended the
throne he cut off the Marquis's small
pension. Pratt having lost his place in
the city government went to Italy and
made vain effort to have the 300f. CON
tinued. Instead of the allowance he
was dismissed with SO, 900, andthis sum
he brought back to America. The last
years of his life were passed in compa-
rntiye poverty. He left son and
daughter. In 184S Pratt was awarded a
medal for meritorious conduct under
King Emmanuel.
